Placed 5th in the comtest.

I Am The Mountain

I am the mountain that stands still in the sky,
casting away doubt to all questions why
I stand with strength, the same you are granted
Sharing the beauty of trees that are planted
I do not move with strong wind or fall with rain
I am a symbol to show that all can sustain
I reach high through clouds, to be seen from afar
Always a reminder that you can shine like a star
I change colors with foliage and highlight each season
I provide various scenery to you for a reason
I am the mountain with peace, the birds fly to
I am the calm stillness, that is deep within you
